(1-25 of 349)UKG Pro Review 2024
We don't get the support we need from UKG Pro or if we do, it's not timely.
We do understand that we are going to have to change Time management because it's no longer supported. We also need to add a scheduling tool.
- Good source of Employee data;
- Reports are fairly wasy to use
- Our Executive Account Manager is great to work with
- Time to respond to cases
- The buck being passed to other areas of the business
- Lack of personal attention, feel like your request go to AI or a black hole
UKG Pro Review
- Proving us with a very involved Executive Relationship Manager
- Working with us as a more team approach
- [A... I...] - incredible partner
- The ticket system - closing cases quicker
- UKG Pro provides so much info, that it's almost too much which makes everything more overwhelming. Simplifying would be so much nicer
Strong Product.
- Security is very good at keeping the date hard to access if you do not have proper authentication to access it.
- Relatively easy to run organizational reports ad hoc or scheduled.
- Can combine various functions together, time keeping, recruiting, etc.
- The reporting is robust but can be frustrating at times when just trying to get an ad hoc report created quickly.
- Navigation is a bit clunky, reminds me of older ERP systems at times
Automate Your HR & Payroll with UKG Pro.
- UKG Pro has allowed us to better automate our payroll processing.
- UKG Pro has helped us become a more paper-free organization.
- UKG Pro allows us to customize the solution to meet our growing and evolving business needs.
- As UKG is aware, the support for customers needs some improvement. As the recent changes to the staffing/support hierarchy take effect, I hope to see some relief to the current frustrations.
- As the UKG Pro products evolve, they need to become more integrated and less segmented. Having to purchase multiple products that then need to coordinate for processing leads to issues.
- As users, we have a lot of options for self-service and customization, but some simple fixes still require assistance from UKG support. Give us the power to help ourselves whenever possible.
Partner for Life - Setting you up for Success
- Training is offered at no additional cost. You have 24/7 access to webinars, quick tours, documentation, etc. which really helps you become more invested in UKG Pro.
- Customer support is superior. You have access to knowledge experts who are interested in your successful use of UKG Pro.
- The UKG Pro user interface is intuitive allowing for ease of use by both managers and associates.
- UKG Pro has an amazing user resource called UKG Community that offers a wealth of information.
- Tax Filing can be tricky. Be sure to understand the process and keep on top of any action on your part.
- Using a new system can be intimidating. Take as much training as possible to fully understand how to best leverage all of the features of UKG Pro.
- Try to plan for the possibility of future growth upfront. Think about where you are trying to be in 10 years - will your HRIS platform sustain your growth plan?
Great Application for Company Management.
- Maintains a full history of employment for an employee.
- Accurately keeps track of time clocked in and out, as well as any time off or overtime.
- Allows the user to input goals to reach towards with their supervisor and track them as they are completed.
- The URL to access the company-specific portal can sometimes be confusing.
- The username/password isn't linked internally, so separate information is needed.
- It would be nice if UKG Pro synced automatically with Outlook or specific calendar programs for easy time off tracking.
UKG has been a great next step for our organization!
- UKG is user friendly. The interface is easily accessible for all employees.
- Open enrollment has become much easier now that it is processed through UKG
- Approvals and hiring process flows are streamlined.
- We currently struggle using the scheduling platform in a way that suits our needs.
- The tax compliance support has been a struggle over our time with UKG.
- Setting up filing needs in new states can be cumbersome.
UKG Pro Review
- The system is easy to navigate
- Customer service is great
- We are able to adapt the system to meet our needs
- Add more visual functionality
- Incorporate more technology, like surveys
A lot of Product - Worth It
- Offers a full suite of products for business needs
- Has a modern look and feel
- Easily configurable
- Great reporting tools
- Sometimes products are rolled out before they are fully ready - functionality isn't 100% at first implementation.
- Everything is an upcharge
- Response time to tickets is inconsistent and take much longer to close since the merger of Ulti and Kronos
UKG User Point of View
- Cognos Analytics provides live data reporting with 1000s of reportable fields.
- The product is aesthetically pleasing allowing for users to learn more efficiently.
- You can create processes either extremely high level or with more granularity, depending on company needs.
- More fields in the onboarding BI package would be great.
- Salary/Performance planning should be included in the base package in my opinion, not as an additional cost, this is a basic HR function everyone needs.
- More consistency in support teams, we are constantly getting a new account manager and they have to re-learn our company needs, it gets exhausting.
Do you have UKG Pro? Why not?
- People Analytics---customer support reps. are knowledgeable and helpful
- Import tool--valuable asset for customers to have the ability to import files without having to create a case
- Mass Updates--another tool that allows customers to make their own updates en mass
- Case selection items--there is no clear distinction for the customer as to which item to choose when creating a case. I.E. When do we choose system administration as opposed to HR administration?
- UKG Learning--There should be a way to add someone to the area to take classes without allowing them access to cases, sign up for classes that were unassigned
- Demonstrations---UKG allows customers to give webinars on how they use the system. At times, UKG reps. do this as well, but would like to see them do this more often
Excited to Grow with UKG!
- Modernize
- Streamline
- Communicate
- Grow
- Updates
- Training Material
UKG Pro manages all of our associate HR, Payroll and Benefits data seamlessly and integrates our multiple platforms that I support as part of the IT Corporate Applications department. We have found that the system is easy to navigate and use for our business customers, and also provides excellent training and documentation materials for customers.
- Easy to navigate pages for HR, Payroll, Benefits and System Administrators
- Excellent BI reporting resources and sample/demo reports
- Customization resources for system pages via Platform Configuration
- Mass upload capability via the Mass Update feature and Import Tool
- Unable to process Promotions as part of the Compensation Management merit process
- Unable to view configuration tables in the Benefits Administration (PlanSource) system
- Difficulty in configuring security for managers who require visibility to more than one Org Level hierarchy in UKG Pro
- Platform configuration fields are difficult to add to queries and do not interface to other modules/systems
HR Dreams come true
- Streamline payroll and tax payments
- BI reports and analytics - via scheduled delivery
- Consolidating all employee data on a user-friendly platform for easy navigation and administration
- Products are holistic, and all geared towards helping HR and companies manage their teams and team members
- Include SSO links in notification emails for users that work in the field that use the mobile app, as well as the standard links that route back to the desktop. e.g. PTO request approvals, job requisition approvals, people assist notifications
- Service requests in Ultimate Community have a serious lag. Provide more resources to get projects completed in a more timely manner. Most steps are stalled in our internal projects that require data feeds, UDES, or interface builds waiting for a UKG resource assignment.
UKG Pro is it all that its cracked up to be!
- Payroll Processing
- Payment Tax Service
- Year End reporting
- Benefits
- Recent server issues has cause slow time in using the system. Better and faster access to UKG Pro is helpful.
- Support system has improved since our implementation but there is still room for improvement. The response time in some cases can be a week just to get someone assigned to a case
- Unable to have our employees access 1099 NEC forms on their UKG accounts as well as t4A for our Canada contractors
- Easy to locate information
- East to make changes and updates
- User friendly
- Adjusting user access for different integrations
- Would like to see an option for candidates to include pronouns in Recruiting
- Would like to shorten the application process in Recruiting for candidates
UKG is an Enterprise's best friend.
Furthermore, we use the site to carry out mandatory trainings per quarter and keep track on all trainings. This helps the company to be able to handle most HR inquiries and trainings in one consolidated website that is very easy to use.
- Timecard Entry and Automation of Scheduling to enter Timecards.
- Training tracking
- Instant changes with Direct Deposit
- Easy to use Mobile Application
- Document acknowledgement at times is buggy
- Restriction of downloading your own documents
- Site doesn't play well on hardened networks.
The reason I say that, is for the cost if your under 2,500 employees there are a lot of software options that companies can use that are definitely cheaper and can provide the same amount of functionality that UKGPro does. However if your company is more than 2,500 employees this is definitely the way to go because of its easy to use UI, its mobile application, and other top notch features.
